Intro

There's a movie based on a man named Patch Adams with Robin Wlliams in it (most of it is indeed quite fictional); that man graduated from my old school and I attended the lecture he gave when he revisited,
I wouldn't even call it a lecture, it was more of an eye opener,

Thru all he said, I cannot help but think he was indeed right, we live in a corporate world, where wealth is valued more than anything else, more than a country and it's citizens, this man spent his days humoring children and people injured & affected by the war, by the genocide, by everything and anything so unpleasant,

I watched as people who dressed up as clowns went around blowing balloons, riding unicycles, smiling, blowing bubbles for children in pain and strife,
I simply cried my eyes out, it was deeply moving to see a young 3 year old suffering from 3rd degree burn marks, or baby with 2 broken fingers and a fractured skull,

they had 20 clowns, in the end, there were 7 left becaue they couldn't take it,

this is what came of our bickering with countries and such, none of it is worth a child permanently scarred,
or a boy starving, he's set up tons of clinics, hospitals, around the world to people who can't afford it, to those who are "needy and lonely and needy"
I feel honored to even be in his presence and hear most of what he had to say,
he tlked of love, "love and love and care and act, act against the wrong-doings..." "If you hate, hate wars, hate the violence that's caused this..."

genocide, war, war for oil, for nuclear arms, it's not worth it! to see bits and pieces of what these people have seen and tried to comfort, it's not worth it.
It breaks my heart to see such a thing,
and I know this is a very-very contreversial issue, but most of what he said was so true,
we America are the bullies, we're the a-holes, coporate America, fame wealth, fortune, power,
is it not worth it?
it's not worth my money that i work so hard for, neither my family's, the money we pay for gas, the cost of houses, it's not worth it. We've been screwed.

When is anyone else going to realize that and do something I wonder,

As a human race will we even survive this era? First it was the arms race for nuclear weapons, then the terrorist attacks, teh war, the genocide, then the fear of nuclear terrorism, which is much worse than arms race.

What next for us?
